We present a new probabilistic proof of Otter's asymptotic formula for the number of unlabelled trees with a given number of vertices. We additionally prove a new approximation result, showing that the total variation distance between…

We study properties of automorphisms of graph products of groups. We show that graph product $\Gamma\mathcal{G}$ has non-trivial pointwise inner automorphisms if and only if some vertex group corresponding to a central vertex has…

The paper is devoted to a study of certain fixed point properties, and their relatives, in the context of full automorphism groups of countable rooted trees. Namely, we study Serre's property (FA'), also called unsplittability, property…

A classical result by Otter shows that the complete graph has an exponential number of non-isomorphic spanning trees. This was recently extended by Lee to every almost regular graph of sufficiently large degree. In this paper, we consider…

We show that any free product of two countable groups, one of them being infinite, admits a faithful and homogeneous action on the Random Graph. We also show that a large class of HNN extensions or free products, amalgamated over a finite…

An essential spanning forest of an infinite graph $G$ is a spanning forest of $G$ in which all trees have infinitely many vertices. Let $G_n$ be an increasing sequence of finite connected subgraphs of $G$ for which $\bigcup G_n=G$.…

We study attracting graphs of step skew products from the topological and ergodic points of view where the usual contracting-like assumptions of the fiber dynamics are replaced by weaker merely topological conditions. In this context, we…

We prove Ehrenborg's conjecture that every connected bipartite graph $G$ with parts of size $m$ and $n$ has at most $\frac{1}{mn}\prod_{v\in V(G)} \operatorname{deg}(v)$ spanning trees, and that equality holds if and only if $G$ is a…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices. For $i\in \{0,1\}$ and a connected graph $G$, a spanning forest $F$ of $G$ is called an $i$-perfect forest if every tree in $F$ is an induced subgraph of $G$ and exactly $i$ vertices of $F$ have even…

Let $H$ be a subgroup of a finite non-abelian group $G$ and $g \in G$. Let $Z(H, G) = \{x \in H : xy = yx, \forall y \in G\}$. We introduce the graph $\Delta_{H, G}^g$ whose vertex set is $G \setminus Z(H, G)$ and two distinct vertices $x$…

We show that many countable groups acting on trees, including free products of infinite countable groups and surface groups, are isomorphic to dense subgroups of isometry groups of bounded Urysohn spaces. This extends previous results of…

In this paper we study the theories of the infinite-branching tree and the $r$-regular tree, and show that both of them are pseudofinite. Moreover, we show that they can be realized by infinite ultraproducts of polynomial exact classes of…

A space is called minimal if it admits a minimal continuous selfmap. We give examples of metrizable continua $X$ admitting both minimal homeomorphisms and minimal noninvertible maps, whose squares $X\times X$ are not minimal, i.e., they…

The group of automorphisms of a symbolic dynamical system is countable, but often very large. For example, for a mixing subshift of finite type, the automorphism group contains isomorphic copies of the free group on two generators and the…
